For general wellness buyers.

A well-designed sleep and relaxation formula. Magnesium at 200mg elemental in premium Albion glycinate form (50% of optimal but highly bioavailable). Melatonin at 5mg and L-Theanine at 50mg as support. The glycinate form compensates for the moderate elemental dose through superior absorption. Strong synergy between ingredients for sleep.

The read

NOW Foods NOW Magnesium Glycinate: the formulation holds up. Lead: Magnesium (as Magnesium Glycinate and Di-Magnesium Malate Granular) at 100.5 mg. A well-designed sleep and relaxation formula. Clinical dose on the primary, and the panel holds together.

Sleep support, relaxation, and general magnesium supplementation.. The product features a clinical dose of premium, chelated magnesium, which is excellent. It combines well with melatonin for sleep. However, the L-Theanine dose is a bit low for strong anxiolytic benefits, and 5mg melatonin can be excessive for some individuals.
